Chapter 230 - Chapter 230 The Clever A

Gengetsu's arrogant laughter spread throughout the entire basin, showing no respect to the Sage of Six Paths whatsoever.

In fact, warmongers like him had always been the biggest headache for the Sage of Six Paths.

And with Gengetsu's broadcast, Sora's identity became known to everyone.

Then, a man who looked extremely handsome and bore a full fifty percent resemblance to Sora suddenly asked the Third Mizukage.

"Hey, Third, since you said this is the Fourth Mizukage, which clan is he from?"

The Third Mizukage turned his head in confusion, then bowed respectfully: "Yuki Clan's head, the Fourth Mizukage is from the Yuki Clan, he is one of your clansmen!"

"Oh?" Hearing the Third Mizukage's words, the Yuki Clan's head was overjoyed.

"Excellent, wonderful! I never thought our Yuki Clan could also produce a Mizukage!"

The Yuki Clan's head looked affectionately at Sora.

His words caused at least one-fifth of the people present to look at Sora with friendly expressions.

Because Sora was one of their own.

For Ninjas, things like 'Outsider' or not had nothing to do with them… they only trusted their day-to-day feelings!

To be honest, pointing out 'Outsider' right from the start, such tactics seemed far too low-level in the eyes of these old monsters and Kage-level figures!

It was only because the Sage of Six Paths had the strength that they couldn't say anything.

After all, what level of scheming was the Sage of Six Paths involved in back in his day, and what level were they involved in?

It was just that these Kage-level figures weren't from that era, and weren't the Sage of Six Paths.

If they were the Sage of Six Paths, how could they have been fooled by Mount Myoboku?

Instantly, regarding Sora's identity, the Kirigakure crowd eagerly questioned the Third Mizukage.

Beaming with pride, the Third Mizukage proudly recounted Sora's terrifying battle achievements to these ancestors of his!

Killing Hyuga, beating Mount Myoboku's contractor, stopping the Eight Gates, killing all the way, turning the tide single-handedly.

With the Third Mizukage's excellent eloquence, the legend of Sora quickly unfolded before everyone's eyes.

"Amazing!" Someone exclaimed in awe.

To be honest, their own experiences might have been turbulent, but definitely not as 'thrilling' as Sora's!

Hearing the Third Mizukage's words, the Third Raikage also looked towards his still young son beside him.

The Third Raikage, imposing even without anger, said: "You were killed by him?"

"Yes, Father!" A bowed his head in shame, not daring to face the Third Raikage's disappointed gaze.

But the more he acted like this, the more the Third Raikage felt the need to interrogate him.

"Why? Why did you die?" the Third Raikage asked calmly: "A, especially at a time right after succession, before even nurturing a successor!!?"

"A, didn't I teach you that once you become Kage, your life no longer belongs to you, but to the entire village?"

"A!" the Third Raikage scolded sternly: "Tell me, in a situation where Kumogakure would certainly fall into chaos after your death, why did you die in battle instead of bending your will for the sake of the village?"

"Could it be that in your eyes, your dignity is more important than the village?"

The Third Raikage grew angrier and more disappointed as he spoke.

Seeing this, the Second Raikage very much wanted to step forward and advise him, but he, who was actually relatively mild among the Raikages, was pushed back by the Third Raikage's firm gaze.

Heck, the Third Raikage even used the Second Raikage as an example.

"Just like me and the Second, even our deaths were for the next generation of the village, just like how the Second held off Gold and Silver Brothers, and I held off ten thousand Iwagakure's Ninjas!"

"Speak, A, how did you die?" The Third Raikage asked again.

Under the Third Raikage's questioning, A's expression changed rapidly, like a neon light in a nightclub.

Turning pale one moment, purple the next.

Because, just as the Third Raikage said, A really did die a stupid death!

It originally had nothing to do with him, and it was all because he overestimated his own ability and challenged Sora!

However, with so many people present, enemies and friends, A simply couldn't bring himself to admit he had done something stupid.

If he did, he would surely be mocked for many years to come!

Being a rash person, to avoid social death, A's brain started working at an unprecedented speed.

And he actually came up with a solution.

"Well, I have something to say too!" A argued.

"I was victimized! Yes, I was victimized!" A grew more and more aggrieved as he spoke: "Father, I was under a Genjutsu, it affected my mind!"

"Otherwise, otherwise I would never have gone to pick a fight with Yuki Sora like that!"

A began recounting his situation in Kumogakure: first the lightning falling from the sky, then the Chakra Cannon breakthrough.

Later, he dreamed about something and decided to fight Sora to the death to seize the Ice Release.

In short, A attributed all his impulsiveness to the enhancements the Sage of Six Paths gave him.

And as A spoke, the Third Raikage's face grew darker and darker!
